South America

The Sahara[1] in North Africa, is the one of the largest deserts in the world. Antarctica is also a desert, and is larger.[2]

It is bounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the Atlas Mountains, the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, and the Sahel region. Inside it are parts of many countries, including Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Chad, and The Sudan. Most parts are uninhabited, but some people manage to survive in places where there is water.[3]

Mid-Atlantic island. Unfortunately it is restricted to a maximum stay of 2 days due to the military activity. Do not swim at the beaches as they are turtle nesting grounds. Keep a lookout for sharks if you swim off your yacht, black Triggerfish in their thousands also nibble on you.
